A COMPANY director from Taunton is aiming to raise £100,000 for a children s charity, with a cycle ride from Somerset to Portugal. Jack Cooper, managing director of Cooper Associates Wealth Management (based in St James Street, Taunton), has undertaken the fundraiser after personal experience of the work done by Cots for Tots. The Cots for Tots appeal was launched in 2010 as part of the Bristol Children s Hospital Charity, The Grand Appeal, in support of the South West region s critically ill babies. In a statement on their fundraising page, Jack and Siobhan Cooper explain how their lives were changed forever on June 18, 2020.
